Abstract: The invention provides an on-line method of simultaneously cleaning and disinfecting an industrial water system which involves the addition to the water of the industrial water system of a Compound selected from the group consisting of the alkali salts of chlorite and chlorate and mixtures thereof and an acid, followed by allowing the water in the industrial water system to circulate for several hours. The reaction of the alkali salts of chlorite and chlorate and acid produces chlorine dioxide  in-situ  in the water of the industrial water system. The chlorine dioxide kills microorganisms and the acid acts to remove deposits upon the water-contact surfaces of the equipment. Chelating agents and biocides are also added, and other possible cleaning and disinfection reagents may additionally be added as needed, including corrosion inhibitors and dispersants. These cleaning and disinfecting methods work in cooling water and boiler water systems.

Abstract: Retrieval of address data for control of routing through a network, such as a telephone network or an e-mail network is supported by a database with pre-stored address resolution information. Input from users is used to expand the database. When a first user inputs information that links a destination in the network to an information item, the database is expanded by adding a record that links the information item to a source identifier of the source and a destination identifier of the destination. Subsequently, the added record is compared with address describing data from a second user. A destination address may be derived from the address describing data for example when at least one attribute associated with the user and the source identifier match and at least part of the address describing data matches the information item. In another embodiment an address of the source identifier may be used as a destination address for the second user, when address describing data from the second user matches with the information item from the record.

Abstract: A machine tool is provided which comprises a machine base (10), a first support (20,100) mounted on a first rotational machine axis on the base, and a second support (22,102) mounted on a second rotational machine axis on the base. The second rotational axis is parallel to and spaced laterally from the first rotational axis and carries a mount (38,112) moveable relative to the second support along a first linear machine axis orthogonal to the second rotational axis. A control arrangement is operable to control the orientation of the first support on the first rotational axis, and the orientation of the mount relative to the second rotational axis and its location along the linear axis, so as to govern the position and orientation of the first support and the mount relative to each other. Existing machine tools often use long linear guide rails and stacked orthogonal axes which introduce alignment and offset errors. The present invention avoids the need for and/or reduces the number of these structures in machine tools.
